Pribina Cup 2016 - Slovakia - Mid-Air?

It's typical for "publicity" of competition accidents to be zero. Organizers' reasons are obvious, but on the other hand pretending "nothing happened" doesn't make gliding community look serious. Wojciech Maybe it would be a good time to look at the mirror. Why is it that pilots from certain Eastern European countries find themselves in these midairs so often? It's out of any proportions, internationally. Competition culture is just plain dangerous. This is constantly proven by stream of accident reports, most remarkable example was Jantar Cup 2014 at Pila (two collisions, three parachute saves and one fatality).
